convenient sampling.................It is non probability sampling.
Since, in this sampling method we are selecting sample/members of population who are conveniently available.

Would you agree to the statement on random sampling methods. Please explain why. In probability samples “each population element has a known (non-zero) chance of being chosen for the sample.” (StatTrek 2020). Some examples of probability samples are, simple random sampling, stratified sampling, cluster sampling, multistage sampling, and systematic random sampling. Simple random sampling is the population and sample consists of “N” objects, and an example is when people play the lottery. Stratified sampling is based on some type of...
A college faculty consist of 400 men in 200 5180. Any minute straighter wants to sample 60 552 numbers to ask their opinion a new parking fee. She takes a rhino sample of working mail random sample 25 female faculty members this is an example of of which of the following: systematic sampling, cluster sampling, simple random sampling, stratified sampling
You know that iPhone users outnumber Android users 10 to 1 in your population. In order to be able to make meaningful comparisons between the two groups of phone users, which sampling method is most appropriate? Disproportionate Stratified sample Simple Random Sample Systematic Sample Proportionate Stratified Sample
Put the following sampling situations in the order 1. Cluster 2. Systematic 3. Stratified 4. Simple Random options: A) As the people entered the airport every 8th person was sniffed by the police dog. B) From a large college campus everyone taking a statistics course is selected to complete a survey. C) From each grocery store in the city a the price of three random cans of soup is collected. D) By using current student numbers a select group of...
5. People end up tossing 12% of what they buy at the grocery store (Reader's Digest, March 2009). Assume this is the true population proportion and that you plan to take a sample survey of {x} grocery shoppers to further investigate their behavior. Determine the expected value of the sampling distribution, i.e. E(p-bar). Express your answer as a decimal rounded to two decimal places.
People end up tossing 12% of what they buy at the grocery store (Reader's Digest, March 2009). Assume this is the true population proportion and that you plan to take a sample survey of 540 grocery shoppers to further investigate their behavior. Use z-table. Show the sampling distribution of (), the proportion of groceries thrown out by your sample respondents (to 4 decimals). p = standard error of the proportion σ( ) = What is the probability that your survey will...
Jackson's Food Marts marketing director, read from a national grocery magazine that the average wait time at a convenience food mart is 2.5 min. He took a random sample of 20 shoppers at the Jackson's Food Mart. The average wait for the sample shoppers was 2.8 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.5 minutes. He asked you if the average wait time at the Jackson's Food Mart was really less than the national average stated in the magazine or was...
People end up tossing 12% of what they buy at the grocery store (Reader's Digest, March, 2009). Assume this is the true population proportion and that you plan to take a sample survey of 540 grocery shoppers to further investigate their behavior. Round your answers to four decimal places. a. Show the sampling distribution of p, the proportion of groceries thrown out by your sample respondents. 1. Is the distribution normal or abnormal? 2. The Mean is ? What is...
You are considering various sampling plans for an upcoming study. Based on the descriptions below, please tell me whether the sampling plan is: SRS, systematic, stratified, or cluster 1. You assign a number to each person from a list and randomly choose a number for each person you select for the sample. 2. You want every person to have an equal probability of being chosen throughout the entire selection process. 3. There are different groups of people that you want...
450 people are randomly selected at grocery stores across the state and surveyed on the amount of money they are spending at the store that day. How does finding the sample variance compare to investigating the sampling distribution of the variance? A. The sampling distribution of the variance requires repeating this process with the same sample several times. So this does not compare to the sampling distribution of the variance. B.Only 450 people are selected from all the shoppers, so...
